In IL the answer would be zero. Third parties do very poorly above the local level. There are ballot access difficulties, and voters shy away from casting votes for anything other than two major parties.

To be successful in IL a candidate would have to have huge name recognition, lots of money, and still might have problems without a party slate to draw attention to the representation.
